    most of the people that hates autowah never gave it an opportunity. The expression its easily controlled by the sensibility knob and the way you play the strings. I used to hate autowah a lot, but once i tried it and learned how to use it, i even liked it more than wah.

    The creator wished to mimic the swells of a muted trumpet with a guitar. That is the point. That you prefer a style with less expression is inconsequential, sir. If you insist upon such rigidness, I would like to remind you that the guitar was intended to be a rhythm instrument. Good day to you.

    I mostly use my wah as a filter, I don't rock the pedal back and forth much. I use it like a crazy powerful tone control that I control with my foot. Really makes certain types of lead lines pop. Auto-wah makes me feel trapped in a world that stinks of patchouli.

    a good optical auto way is extremely touch sensitive, I play mine with my fingers because the slightest difference is pressure effects how far the envelope opens up. so there is control, but it is limited. still have a wah pedal though because they do a lot!

The old school wah pedal itself is good but it’s kind of a throwback to a bygone era and the times I used it I got tired of having to stand there with my foot on it working the pedal up and down. Of course I know there are some “purists“ out there who still like the old school wah and once again, to each their own.
